This can lead to bloody mucus in nose areas when the blood resulting from this minimal trauma is mixed in with regular clear mucus. And, when blood dries, mucus color can change again, becoming tinged with shades of brown or dark red when dislodged from the nasal area. Therefore brown mucus from nose areas is not uncommon during times of illness or other nose maladies.
Soil Compaction Tests. There are many types of Soil compaction tests which are performed on soil. One of the most common test to determine the field density of soil is the sand-cone method. Maximum density is found by plotting a densityâmoisture curve.
Proctor compaction test. The Proctor compaction test is a laboratory method of experimentally determining the optimal moisture content at which a given soil type will become most dense and achieve its maximum dry density. The test is named in honor of R. R. Proctor, who in 1933 showed that the dry density of a soil for a given compactive effort depends on the amount of water the soil contains during soil compaction. His original test is most commonly referred to as the standard Proctor compaction test; his test was later updated to create the modified Proctor compaction test.
